Wedding Flowers By Season





Here is a reference for wedding flowers by season. It has comments on their uses, costs and meaning.

The costs given are in general terms because things such as air shipping, greenhouse cultivation and imported flowers will add to the expense of the flowers. The costs of the flowers will also vary from region to region at any time of the year.

Flowers that can be found locally and in season (or even from your own garden) will keep the costs down.

Wedding Tip
#2

If you are on a tight budget use lots of greenery.

Greenery is inexpenvise and will make a great filler and you will use less flowers.  

Try using potted plants and shrubs such a ficus trees which can be rented.  

You may even have your own fake trees at home, or you could borrow from friends and family.  

These will look charming when lit with tiny lights.
